Some of the country’s largest real estate developers such as DLF, Unitech and HDIL have started hiring again, as they look to launch new projects and speed up execution of existing ones to cash in on a pickup in home demand, reports Sanjeev Choudhary from New Delhi.The companies expect high demand in the coming fiscal quarters, with the economy showing clear signs of a revival in the fiscal year started April 2009. “We are launching new projects and plan to hire in large numbers,“ said a spokesman for DLF, India’s largest real estate firm that fired more than 300 people during the downturn. Unitech, which has 1,200 people on its rolls, has added 300 employees at different levels in the past few months.
